Thanks for working on packaging affinity for Debian and it looks like an
interestin project, but I have the feeling that description can be improved.
As you package this for Debian it should be pretty obvious that the software
runs on Linux (and specifically on Debian). I do not think that the
information that it works on Linux and Windows is really necessary and you
might want to change your description to reflect that.

Let me know if you want me to review a new description or if you want me to
make suggestions.

Have a great day!
